Valentín Barco is highly rated at Brighton but could be on the move (Picture: Getty Images)

Sevilla have made an approach to bring in Brighton defender Valentin Barco on loan, with the Seagulls open to a short-term move.

The 20-year-old arrived at Brighton form Boca Juniors in January and is being touted to be a big hit in the Premier League.

The left-back has already won two caps for Argentina and Fantasy Premier League managers have certainly taken notice of the youngster’s talents.

At the time or writing, a hefty 23.1 per cent of FPL managers have Barco in their teams, but that could be about to dramatically plummet.

Transfer expert César Luis Merlo reports that Sevilla are in talks with the Seagulls to bring Barco in on a season-long loan.
Brighton are not looking to sell the Argentinian, but are willing to let him head out on loan and gain experience with the La Liga side, with the player also open to the switch.

Barco was on the bench for Brighton’s Premier League opener at Everton last weekend, but wasn’t brought on in the impressive 3-0 victory.
